Validation of appropriate estimation criteria for the number of components for separating a polymodal grain-size distribution into lognormal distributions

Abstract Polymodal particle size distributions are generally analyzed by separating them into lognormal distributions, but estimating the precise number of lognormal components required remains a considerable problem. In the present study, appropriate evaluation criteria for the estimation of the nu...
